There is something powerful about learning to see the natural world differently—and in this conversation, I sat down with Dawn Wilson to explore that and more.
From her life in Estes Park surrounded by elk to leading photography tours across Alaska, Peru, and beyond, Dawn shares what it looks like to build a career founded in observation, respect, and curiosity.
We talk about the experiences that shaped her as a photographer, the stories behind the images, and how paying attention to nature changes how you approach your work.
This conversation blends storytelling with a deeper look at wildlife photography, conservation, and the choices we make when we step into these environments.
In this episode, we cover:
Life in Estes Park and photographing wildlife up close
Wildlife encounters, including elk, moose, and night photography experiences
Building a career through photography, writing, and guiding
Understanding animal behavior and why it matters
Using photography to support conservation and awareness
The role of storytelling in creating impact
Why slowing down—especially in wildlife areas—matters
